While creating our new Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) labs, the outside of our school got a complete makeover, bringing a modern touch to the outside of our facility.

Current Progress
Construction is Underway!
Construction activities for the Geneseo Central School District Capital Improvement Project are underway. Initial work has focused on project staging, preparation of work areas, and coordinating the first phases of renovation.
Construction teams are working closely with district staff to ensure that work areas remain safely separated from student and staff spaces. Safety fencing, signage, and designated work zones have been established to maintain a secure environment while construction activities take place.
As the project moves forward, our partners at SEI Design Group and Campus Construction continue to coordinate timelines, subcontractors, and project logistics to ensure the work progresses efficiently and according to plan. Updates, photos, and project milestones will be shared on this page as work continues.
What are our Next Steps?
Construction Continues on Key Spaces
Over the coming months, construction will continue with the renovation of several key spaces within the building. Initial phases will focus on a full renovation of the main gymnasium and attached locker rooms.
Additional work scheduled in the early stages of the project includes:
Roof restoration over the gymnasium and surrounding areas
Renovation and reconfiguration of team rooms
Installation of a dehumidification system to improve conditions in the tunnel area
Throughout these phases, the district will continue to communicate any operational adjustments, including temporary changes to hallway access, entrances, or room locations.
What is the Next Phase in the Project?
Facility Improvements
Following the initial renovation work in the gymnasium area, the project will move into additional facility improvements across the building.
Future phases will include:
Renovation of lower-level restroom facilities
Replacement of the existing boiler with a high-efficiency system
Construction of new UPK classrooms and improvements to nearby music and art spaces
A redesign of the main entrance to improve visitor flow and strengthen building security

What Have We Completed From Our 2021 Capital Improvement Project?
Facade Completely Redone on West-Side of School
Bridge Placed to Make Stadium Seating More Accessible
A bridge from the parking lot to the top of our stadium seating has been placed and is in the final stages before being able to open to the public. This bridge will allow easier access from our parking area to the top of the bleachers, making it easier for everyone to be able to enjoy the space.
New STEAM Labs Give Students a Space to Learn Hands-On
Our new Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) labs give students a large, open space where they are encouraged to learn hands-on. These open spaces make for the perfect environment for our students to dive into topics like science, art, and engineering and get practical lessons which they can touch and move.
New Playground Welcomes Students Back for 2024-2025 School Year!
A brand new playground welcomed our students back to school for the 2024-2025 school year! After facing structural issues, our previous playground needed to be replaced, and students are loving this brand new addition to our district!

Board of Education Public Forum - Future Capital Improvement Project - August 14, 2024
Board of Education Public Hearing - Future Capital Improvement Project - August 5, 2024
Board of Education CIP Workshop - June 25, 2024
Geneseo Central School District residents voted 208 Yes to 282 No on Tuesday, January 30, to reject a $28.3 million capital project. This project, titled "Safe Campus: Enhancing Security and Enriching Student Life Capital Improvement Project," would have focused on immediate infrastructure needs and overall enhancements to our facilities.
"While the result is not what we had hoped for, we appreciate the engagement of the Geneseo community in this important decision-making process," Superintendent of Schools Cindy Flowers said.
The proposed project, which was shaped by community and staff feedback, aimed to address immediate infrastructure needs and overall enhancements to the facilities, with a particular focus on the main gymnasium. Repairs are needed to keep the space open for use without negatively impacting physical education classes and athletic programs.
